[ Upstream commit b69245126a48e50882021180fa5d264dc7149ccc ]
Since commit 6c40624930c5 ("bootconfig: Increase max nodes of bootconfig
from 1024 to 8192 for DCC support") increased the max number of bootconfig
node to 8192, the bootconfig testcase of the max number of nodes fails.
To fix this issue, we can not simply increase the number in the test script
because the test bootconfig file becomes too big (>32KB). To fix that, we
can use a combination of three alphabets (26^3 = 17576). But with that,
we can not express the 8193 (just one exceed from the limitation) because
it also exceeds the max size of bootconfig. So, the first 26 nodes will just
use one alphabet.
With this fix, test-bootconfig.sh passes all tests.

Align the bootconfig applied initrd image size to 4. To fill the gap,
the bootconfig command uses null characters in between the bootconfig
data and the footer. This will expands the footer size but don't change
the checksum.
Thus the block image of the initrd file with bootconfig is as follows.
[initrd][bootconfig][(pad)][size][csum]["#BOOTCONFIG\n"]

Add bootconfig magic word to the end of bootconfig on initrd
image for indicating explicitly the bootconfig is there.
Also tools/bootconfig treats wrong size or wrong checksum or
parse error as an error, because if there is a bootconfig magic
word, there must be a bootconfig.
The bootconfig magic word is "#BOOTCONFIG\n", 12 bytes word.
Thus the block image of the initrd file with bootconfig is
as follows.
[Initrd][bootconfig][size][csum][#BOOTCONFIG\n]
